Discover Sustainable Elegance with Occidental Jewelry

video Jun 04, 2024

Welcome to Occidental Jewelry! I’m Che-Yu Ou, founder and designer. At Occidental Jewelry, my mission is to blend exquisite beauty with a commitment to environmental stewardship. My oceanic shell pearl jewelry embodies sustainability and elegance, making it the perfect choice for those who value both style and responsibility.

 

Sustainable Practices:

My jewelry is crafted from sustainably sourced shells of naturally deceased giant clams (Tridacna gigas). The shells undergo a meticulous process, including being coated with multiple layers of natural pearl essence using a Japanese technique, resulting in pearls that emulate the appearance and feel of natural pearls.

 

Eco-Friendly Practices:

  1. Responsible Sourcing: Only using shells from naturally deceased clams.
  2. Eco-Friendly Materials: Utilizing non-toxic dyes and coatings.
  3. Energy-Efficient Processes: Implementing methods that reduce energy consumption.
  4. Reducing Waste: Ensuring every part of the shell is utilized and by-products are managed responsibly.

 

Benefits of Oceanic Shell Pearls:

- Durability: Retains beauty over time, unlike natural pearls.

- Color Retention: Special technique ensures vibrant color.

- Quality and Affordability: Offers luster and overtone similar to natural pearls at a more affordable price.
